PSG bounced back from their European disappointment against Metz at the weekend, with Christopher Nkunku scoring twice and catching the eye, leading Emery to conclude that the club were right not to loan out the 20-year-old.

"[Nkunku] has waited with humility and patience for opportunities," he said.

"We asked ourselves the question of [whether to agree to] a loan, but we decided together that he should stay in Paris. His latest performances show this was the right choice."
